      Meanwhile, Katniss's support and guidance comes more or less entirely from men: Peeta, Gale, Haymitch, Cinna, Plutarch.

      And this is interesting stuff - what are we being told about the world, about Katniss, how does this reflect Collins' own views? - but it

      @abaddondave ain't feminism. I'm not actually very interested in looking at it in those terms at all. There's no lack of stories like that.

      I'm more interested in the story as a criticism of heroism. Katniss's lack of agency, and the muddiness of her motives, is fascinating.

      She makes two meaningful decisions, one at the very beginning and one at the very end. The rest of the time, she's reacting for survival.

      And we have this wonderful 1st person narrative, and she's profoundly unreliable. Not only does she never understand anyone else's motives,

      she never even understands her *own*. She's so angry, and broken, and (frankly) kinda ignorant, that she makes you work out what's going on

      at every turn. As a YA book, that's awesome. I can just imagine encountering that sort of decoding task as a teenager, and how I'd enjoy it.

      In the end, (spoilers, I guess?) her decision to end up with Peeta is based entirely on exhaustion. It's the perfect ending not because they

          @arthur_affect Yep. The most interesting thing about the love triangle is it just sort of annoys her. And that's as worked up as she gets.
